Proverbs 31:28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed...Holiest Amen

Billy Graham Devotional: Only God Himself fully appreciates the influence of a Christian mother in the molding of character in her children. Someone has said, “Like mother, like children.” Most of the noble characters and fine leaders of history have had good, God-fearing mothers. We are told that George Washington’s mother was pious, and that Sir Walter Scott’s mother was a lover of poetry and music. On the other hand, we are told that Nero’s mother was a murderess and that the dissolute Lord Byron’s mother was a proud and violent woman. The influence of a mother upon the lives of her children cannot be measured. They know and absorb her example and attitudes when it comes to questions of honesty, temperance, kindness, and industry. Amen

God's ways are vast...my father was like a dictator and mean to us 3 children growing up but he brought us to church each week and raised us in the Catholic faith from teachings to first communions. My mother was not into the church and I believe if it wasn't for my father, I would be a lost soul today. So he was not an ideal parent but he did what God wanted him to do. Reading Billy Graham's post, It just dawned on me the importance to have my father in my life back then. Thank You Jesus

LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Deliver us Lord from all evil and grant us peace in our day. In Your mercy, keep us free from sin and protect us from all anxiety as we wait for the joyful coming of our Savior Lord Jesus Christ

For the kingdom, and the power, and the glory are Yours now and always and forever. Holy Amen.
